A yellow diamond sign. Two black lines curve together and join into one line.

Two marked lanes join into one. You drive in the left lane. No official sign says who goes first. What must you do?

  1. Go first, because you are in the passing lane
  2. Go first if you drive faster
  3. Take turns with every second car
  4. Yield to traffic in the right lane
Show answer

Correct answer: Yield to traffic in the right lane

The law makes the driver in the left lane yield when two marked lanes merge. A sign may change this rule. Merge with care.
